{"product_id":"calling-in-black-9781736074619","title":"calling in black","description":"Arresting and beautiful...\"In Nicholle Ramsey's first book, calling in black, we hear a fresh, young voice, informed by Spoken Word luminaries such as Danez Smith, and Mai'a Williams but there are also echoes of poets a generation back, like Maya Angelou, Sonia Sanchez, Lucille Clifton, Amiri Baraka, Audre Lorde, Nikki Giovanni, Diane DiPrima and Adrienne Rich. There is strength in these poems, there is intimacy; there is self-confidence, there is vulnerability; there is innocence, there is maturity. The poems are honest, funny, insightful, intelligent, eloquent. When you hear them performed, they ring with life-they shine. This is true of the poems on the page, also. The poet is tough on us, while being generous.\"-Ken McCullough, former Poet Laureate of Winona, Minnesota Author of \"Broken Gates and Dark Stars\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-14165348\"\u003eNicholle Ramsey\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Talking Drum, LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/23\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.19d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781736074619\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 173607461X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE005050\"\u003eAmerican | African American \u0026amp; Black\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Talking Drum, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42653388407021,"sku":"9781736074619","price":19.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_85cbf77f-4e4d-4728-ad31-b52afc5fef7e.jpg?v=1649249942","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/calling-in-black-9781736074619","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
